| The guide blended historical information with the "ghost" entertainment element nicely. | ||||||

| The Ghost Tour of Charleston was certainly that of an educational adventure. We learned, not only of the local ghosts of Charleston, but also many historical facts that supported their possible existence. Our tour guide was especially knowledgeable on the subject. He was also very personable. I recommend this tour to anyone with common interests. | ||||||

Too much talk without enough ghosts

| I was really excited about the tour, especially since it's based on the book, The Ghosts of Charleston. However, I felt more like I was at an architectural lecture than on a ghost walk. I heard maybe three ghost stories over 2 hours. I really think that if there was less chatter about doors and windows and more ghost stories i would have enjoyed it more. | ||||||

Nice walk, not enough scare

| We came hoping to possible see or even hear something that would make your blood freeze up. We were disappointed in that aspect, because nothing happened, that we know of. The information from our guide was very good, although rather on the dramatic side. He was much better when he was just talking and being himself rather than the exaggerated tour guide. We (I) should have dug a little deeper, and chose the tour for the jail and cemeteries ...... the really scary places we thought we were going to see. We only got to see the exterior of these places. We wanted to go inside, not just look in. Our next trip to Charleston will definitely include that particular tour, maybe some others, now that we know what to expect. We still had a good time. Weather was perfect, time was perfect. Would recommend it for the 1st time ghost tour. Thanks! | ||||||

not as good as I expected

| I was looking forward to the ghost tour in Charleston, but it was not exactly as I anticipated. The guide was not the most talented storyteller, he was hard to follow, and most of the stories did not take place where we were on the "tour". I expected to at least walk up to the front of houses or buildings where these stories supposedly take place. Instead it was more like "Now a few blocks from here there is a story about..." Also the tour did not begin on time because some people had trouble finding a parking space. | ||||||

Horrible Experience (not in a good Ghost way!)

| The tour was absolutely excruciating. While the guide had obvious enthusiasm about the subject, he was unable to clearly communicate with the group. The parts that were understandable were just plain boring. By the time he covered anything interesting, he had already lost the interest of the group. The tour was a complete waste of money and more importantly time. | ||||||

Interesting, But Not What Was Expected.

| Started out pretty good, but some of the group quickly lost interest. This didn't bother us since we thought the group was too large anyway. Guide was quite irrated when some of the group left and he made some inappropriate comments. There were children in our group. Enjoyed seeing the city at night and our guide pointed out some interesting symbols. Thought we'd visit Poogan's Porch since we were only about a block away, but we didn't. The time passed quickly and didn't realize our tour would end so abruptly. Not sure what happened there. Even though our group wasn't very interactive, we were listening carefully. We were not guided back to the Waterfront, but instead were just left at the church and given very vague directions on how to get back. Hopefully everyone got back safely. | ||||||

| I have taken this tour with many of my visitors - probably 8 - 10 times. Each tour is a little different, even with the same guide so it never gets boring. I have also taken ghost tours by other companies and by far prefer this tour. - - - next time I have visitors, I'll do it again. | ||||||

The Best Ghost Tour in Charleston Bar None

| I have been on another ghost tour with a different company on Market Street (which was boring and disappointing). This was my 3rd ghost tour with The Ghosts of Charleston, and I have never been disappointed either time. Every guide that I have had was very animated, enthusiastic, and interesting. I HIGHLY recommend this tour. I plan on doing another one next month with the same company, just a different tour. My fiance is not from Charleston, so she got to hear some of the history as well as stories of ghostly sightings. | ||||||
